I believe that we are who we choose to be. 
Nobody's going to come and save you, 
you've got to save yourself. 
Nobody's going to give you anything. 
You've got to go out and fight for it. 
Nobody knows what you want 
except for you. 
And nobody will be as sorry as you
if you don't get it. 

So don't give up on your dreams.
Even a small star shines in the darkness.
Every great dream begins with a dreamer.
Always remember, you have within you 
the strength,
the patience, 
and the passion 
to reach for the stars 
to change the world.
Be that strong girl that everyone knew would make it through the worst,
be that fearless girl, the one who would dare to do anything, 
be that independent girl who didn't need a man, 
be that girl who never backed down.

"I am not pretty. I am not beautiful. I am as radiant as the sun."
